A while ago, I learned that MacOS has had a Unicode Hex Input keyboard since ages.
It is not installed by default, so you have to manually add it:
- Start the
System Preferences.app - Open the
Keyboardicon - Choose the
Input Sourcestab - Click the plus (
+) icon - Search for Unicode or Hex to get so
Unicode Hex Inputis the only entry in the list - Click the
Addbutton - Choose the
Keyboardtab - Enable Show keyboard and emoji viewers in menu bar
Now in the menu bar, you can select the Unicode Hex Input.
After that, when holding the Option key, any 4-digit Unicode sequence will get you a Unicode character.
